Patriotic Rehabilitation of Untrained Dogs

Are you a veteran or active in the military, or are you the spouse of an veteran or active military member? Active Heroes and the Kentucky Humane Society are looking for volunteers who wish to become dog trainers, or “military handlers,” for at-risk shelter dogs.

With this rewarding program, you’ll learn dog-training skills and have the satisfaction of knowing you are helping needy shelter dogs in the Louisville area. Kentucky Humane Society behavioral experts will teach you how to use positive reinforcement to train your foster dog. You will receive training and access to KHS experts. KHS provides for everything your foster dog will need – food, leash/collar, a crate, toys, and training materials. All you’ll need to bring is a willingness to learn and patience with your foster dog as you teach him or her manners that will help your dog get adopted once he or she graduates from the program.

Your foster dog will live with you for one month, or longer if necessary to gain the desired skills. After that, your dog will return to the Kentucky Humane Society ready for adoption. You will be key to helping your foster dog gain the confidence, life skills and desired behaviors that will make him or her an excellent family dog.
